The New Age

Sixty years ago the veritable king of heroes, Lord Valor, had taken his last stand against Plasmeus, head of a nefarious coalition of criminals. Both died in the fight, and a war broke out. Those who hadn't hung their capes and tights from grief for their example or fear for what was to come, died in a horrible bloody confrontation. Identities were thrown out left and right, attempts on the lives of families were made, but a year after it was all over and the dust was cleared, there were no heroes above the badge, and no villain beyond the mundane. But now, at the turn of 2013, the country seems to be returning to that odd chaos that inhabited it like a parasite from the start of 1902. People have developed abilities beyond the normal man, and questionable activities outside of an average cop's reach are in their geneses. Who are you? Why do you do what you do?

Luck Manipulation is simply that, whether it's causing an enemy's gun to jam, the wind to shift when someone throws a grenade, or the roulette wheel stopping on the number you want it to. Matter displacement is just that, displacing matter. Moving someone's heart out of their body and ten feet away from them, dropping a nearby cinderblock from 30 ft in the air on an enemy's head, or opening a handy pocket rift to pull a snack or weapon from.

For further clarification: this rp will be purely writing based, no use of stats or other numbers, you're welcome to self insert if you want to (not that I'd know, one way or the other). The alignment would be referring to your status as hero, villain, or anti. The setting will mostly be a big city (a new york stand-in, if you will). I can't start planning this until I know the characters that will be involved, given the kind of RP this will be, with both player heroes and villains. This new age of heroes has been around for about a couple months, so the villains may have been around a little longer, but nobody but a super old geezer will be a real veteran. Also, you may have no more than three powers, and I have to give the okay. Also, it would be great if you had some sort of origin, but if you want to RP your hero's origin from the very start, that would be great.

Name: Analise NyteMask Name: ReaperAge: 19Gender: femaleAppearance: She has an anti cross covered in spiders and webs tattooed on the skin of her back ( A ‘gift’ from her demon master) Power: Shadow: manipulation, travel and (with a blood offering) beasts.Weapons: The giant scythe and an elongated jagged knife with an obsidion blade.Alignment: VillainPersonality: Doll Like.Origin: Once Upon a time there was a girl with everything, a beautiful career ahead of her, a loving family, the best of friends and luck always seemed to be on her side. Then one day, a tragedy swallowed her. Not her, herself per-se but everything that made her life so great. Her family and friends died, her career fell to pieces at her feet, and her luck turned terrible. In an attempt to get all of this back the girl made a deal with the most unsavory of fellows, a demon she summoned herself. One who controlled shadows and stole away souls. The demon laughed as she begged a deal to try and obtain all that was lost. He did however make her a deal in the end. He gave her power to protect what little she had left, a piece of power molded after his own. In exchange, he would take away her color, her skin turned pale, her sparkling blue eyes a deep black, fire bright hair turned to the color of coal, her lips a cold looking grey, and anything that was a part of would lose its color as well. The girl accepted this deal, but made an error in sending the demon back to hell. The error cost her, her soul. Now her body is naught but the demons puppet among the living as her soul sits caged in his hellish home beneath the earth powerless to do nothing but watch as her own body is used to do the demons evil bidding.

@Silversweet doll's don't really have a personality (as far as I know), and how all that stuff happned to her might be nice to konw. Also, on the origins, you said specifically that her body was being used by demons, and that she had no actual control. Does that mean that the demons inside of her are the actual villains ( well villain conglomerate)? and that being the case, maybe PM me with what the demons are all about (motivation-wise, I mean?). On the whole, I don't really have a problem with her, but I'm getting a bad feeling that we're going to be a universe filled with few heroes and black as night antis and arch-villains
